Remarkably, Hanson did not allow a single sack in each of his first three seasons at Oregon. He was the leader on the offensive line and called out blocking assignments and quarterbacked the line so to speak.\u00a0 He was twice selected to the All Pac-12 second team.<\/p>\n

Jake Hanson attended high school at Eureka High School, in Eureka, CA. He was a standout player and left high school with multiple big school offers. He was offered by six Pac-12 schools but in the end, opted to attend Oregon. Arizona, Utah, Washington State, Oregon State, and California also offered him scholarships, as did Fresno State and Hawaii.<\/p>\n

Hanson had another solid season as a senior at Oregon. Hanson started 12 games at center and played well throughout. He was consistently good in pass coverage and kept his quarterback Justin Herbert<\/a><\/strong> on his feet.\u00a0 Jake Hanson participated in the NFL Combine and ran a 5.5 40-yard-dash but put up an impressive 33 reps in the bench press.
